It IS a lovely gift to give to ourselves. Life is so fleeting, so why not celebrate more?

The other day my husband and I began to count our blessings, and it lightened our load. Very powerful stuff, Diane!

I love this idea. Birthday cake twice in a year! And I love the idea of counting blessings. When you start to enumerate, they compound! 🙂

I agree that the best gift we can give ourselves is to see our lives with gratitude. Midlife is not so much about getting old anymore, as it is about getting closer to fulfilling one's true potential. That IS exciting isn't it? Thanks for a heartfelt post!

It's funny how comfortable you can feel with the right person. I can't wait to give you a big hug IRL!

Funny how they live across country from each other, yet always manage to call me within a day or so of each other. I'm sure you and Alexandra have similar things that happen to you.

So we are 6 months apart, eh? Ok, so let's celebrate 3 months after your birthday! (Does that even make sense?) Heck, let's celebrate now! 🙂

We didn't actually celebrate it, but I did with all of my blogger buddies like you! Enjoy yourself.

But if it's for me, make it a chocolate one! 🙂
